AZ FACTORY Tribute Brings Together Over 40 Designers In Honour Of Alber Elbaz
AZ Factory announce that their Love Brings Love tribute to founder Alber Elbaz will be a collaborative runway show. Over 40 fashion houses will join the AZ Factory design studio in creating looks in homage to the late couturier. The resulting collection will be presented on October 5th , as the closing event of Paris Fashion Week.
“We are so moved and humbled that today’s best creative minds are joining the AZ Factory team in paying tribute to Alber’s memory. The show will be a powerful expression of love and a beautiful celebration for our dear Alber. We know that he would have been incredibly honored to be remembered in this way.” – Laurent Malecaze, AZ Factory CEO
The show’s concept was inspired by Théatre de la Mode, a 1945 Parisian exhibition that united French couturiers as a beautiful expression of creativity, prestige, and solidarity in the wake of World War II. Fascinated by the uplifting story, Alber had always dreamt of uniting his fashion family for a new, modern iteration of Théatre de la Mode for today. More information on the list of participating designers and fashion houses will be communicated at a later date.
